12.8 SEXUAL INTERCOURSE FORCED BY A THIRD PARTYWomen in the domestic violence sub-sample were asked whether anyone had ever forced them tohave sexual intercourse with some other person when they did not want to. If the answer to this question was“Yes,” they were asked who forced them <strong>and</strong> how often this happened in the last 12 months.Results show that, overall, 2 percent of women report having been forced by someone to have sexualintercourse with a third person <strong>and</strong> 1 percent report such an occurrence in the past 12 months (data notshown).
